　　It costs abut £100 to buy separately.

　　The spokesman said the company considered this to have been a "gift" but did not rule out some kind of additional compensation.

　　Samsung's Galaxy line-up used to distinguish itself against Apple's iPhones by allowing users to take off the phones' backs and swap out their batteries.

　　But the S6 and Note 5 phones changed that, helping Samsung offer more compact designs with added water resistance as a bonus.

　　Some people have pointed out Samsung might have avoided its current problems if it had not made that choice.

　　And it is notable its domestic rival LG has included removable batteries in its two current top-end models.

　　Unsurprisingly, Samsung would not comment on its future designs.

　　But one expert said all smartphone-makers would be reviewing their plans.

　　"There are greater power demands on modern smartphones - they have bigger, higher-resolution screens, faster processors, and 4G data - but there is also greater pressure to keep them very compact and also enable owners to charge them quickly," said Ian Fogg, from IHS.

　　"Those are competing demands.

　　"Everyone will be looking at their forthcoming smartphone launches and tasking their engineering teams to have another look at the way their charging and the batteries work to make sure they don't have the same problem.

　　"And Samsung will be looking at its upcoming models in a particularly close way, as it's possible they were set to share some of the same design elements as the Note 7."
